Talk about a get well game - good grief their numbers are awful.

I will lead them in a "we're # 275" chant.

Ideal game to take control and empty the bench as early as possible. Give the SUPERB SEVEN a freakin' rest.

But a loss in a game like this could mean no NCAA.

Up against Dallas/Green Bay. Will be switching back and forth and recording both

Tulane is terrible but we all know crazy things happen in NOLA.

always hated games at Tulane and behind the Curtain at Rice-SMU usually played down to the atmosphere in those places

Question: does anyone know the rules on the regular season champs? Let's say SMU and Cincy only lose one to each other and tie for #1 in conference, would the tie breaker be overall record? If that's tie, what's the next step? Just curious, have to win first.

Gameday! Take care of business.

Co-Conference Champions. There are tie-breakers in place to decide who gets the #1 seed in the conference tournament, but both teams would be co-regular season champs.

I know in 2014 Cincy and Louisville were co-conference regular season champions.

Overall record is not one of the tie breakers, all the tie breakers are based on conference games.
